This age-old controversy has raged in social circles for at least as long as the planet has been rotating on its axis. Can you imagine our ancestors debating whether prehistoric beaches or ancient mountain ranges were superior? Although we recognize that this can be a contentious subject, we’re going to go out on a limb and tell you which side of the argument we support. A palm leaf, maybe, rather than a limb. If that not-so-subtle hint wasn’t enough. Enjoy the beach and vacation rentals Aruba.
Of course, none of this can come as a surprise.It’s probably safe to assume that as a vacation rental company whose mission is to encourage vacationers to enjoy the unrivaled beauty of Destin and South Walton, we’re beach people. Beaches are superior to mountains. In all seriousness, it’s likely that it’s warped. But, believe it or not, all beaches are spectacular, and not just because we say so. Here are some of the reasons why we prefer a relaxing break in the sun to trudging across rugged, high-altitude terrain.
Views of the Gulf
Without noting the stunning Gulf (or ocean) views, a discussion about the beach will be incomplete. It’s awe-inspiring to look out on the vast unknown of unparalleled depths, and it’s a great way to spend the day watching the waves roll and the sun glisten on the water. Sunrises and sunsets on the beach are even more beautiful. What’s the best part? From the sandy shore to a nearby beach bar with a view of the seascape, these views can be enjoyed almost anywhere.
The weather
Beaches have consistently colder weather than mountains during the year. The combination of the warmer temperatures and the humidity produces a cheerful and calming environment. It also means wearing fewer clothes. Don’t worry, we’re not trying to be scandalous. Warm weather necessitates fewer layers, resulting in fewer things to pack for your journey. It’s a matter of practicality, and we like it a lot. You can also look for villas Aruba.
Fish and seafood
It is a fact that coastal areas have the best seafood. Because of its proximity to the ocean, the fish is fresh and of the highest quality. Destin and the rest of the Emerald Coast have a wide range of fantastic restaurants that serve food straight from the Gulf. We don’t know what else to say if that isn’t new.
Recreational activities
Beaches and mountains both have recreational activities, but beach activities are more enjoyable. Paddleboard, kayak, snorkel, scuba, surf, swim, parasail, boat, fish, and the list goes on at the beach. These are excellent choices for those looking for adventure. Yeah, if you found a river or mountain lake in the mountains, you might do a few of these things, but these activities are also easily accessible at the beach. Aside from the fact that mountain water is incredibly cold, wouldn’t you rather kayak in warm coastal waters than in snow-runoff?
Life in the Sea
You will enjoy an extremely special, enigmatic, and stunning biosphere at the beach. Depending on the beach you visit, you can see dolphins, sharks, crabs, jellyfish, sea turtles, sand dollars, a variety of fish, and even more. Coral reefs, both natural and artificial, can be found in many coastal areas, providing a refuge for marine diversity. Put on your scuba or snorkeling gear and dive under the waves to discover the incredible underwater world.
Sandcastles
Is it possible to make sandcastles in the mountains? No way. Beaches are the only place where you can create sandcastles. Some beaches also host sandcastle contests, where artists demonstrate their amazing sand sculpting abilities, and it’s a lot of fun to explore these massive sandy fortresses. Nothing beats playing in the sand, digging moats, and watching the kids have pretended sand fights for the average citizen. And the good times don’t have to end there. You can still bury your mates in the sand or make your daughter a sand mermaid tail with shells. There is a plethora of options.
